An organization created upon the birth of the USA over 230 years ago. It's mission is to defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies; foreign and domestic.

Contrary to popular belief, the modern Army no longer accepts convicts as an alternative to jail. All applicants must hold a high school diploma or a GED at minimum. (98% are HS grads) A College degree is a requisite to becoming an officer, though many enlisted soldiers also hold them.
During an average recruiter's day, 75% of interviewed applicants are rejected.

For over two decades, the US Army has been an all-volunteer one, which means only those who have the desire to serve will do so-- thereby greatly increasing morale and unit survivability through better teamwork.

It is a sad fact that US Army soldiers have been the target of protesters both at home and abroad, most notably being the recent incident of a uniformed soldier being beaten at gunpoint by multiple assailants in the famously liberal city of Seattle, WA. Recruiters have also been targets for demonstrations and violence. Some people are seemingly unaware that the soldiers are just fellow Americans who are sworn to carry out their duty. These protests are misdirected at them.

The US Army today represents the finest our country has to offer. We must remember to show respect for its members; past and present.

The US Army is the reason you have your freedom. The constitution is just a piece of paper without the Army to safeguard it.

The largest and oldest branch of the US Military. Solely responsible for winning the revolutionary war and winning the freedom of the US of A. Has taken more casualties then all other branches of the US military COMBINED!!!!!including the fucking marines (small caps used on purpose). In fact, for every marine who has ever died for his country, 16- count them six motherfucking teen) US Army Soldiers have died defending this country. of the top 20 battles fought to determine whether or not this country would exist, every one was fought and won by the the US Army. That is why it is 1st in order of precedence when the

branch of the military are shown (i.e,... Branch flags). JSYK!!!!

Thank the good Lord almighty that the "U.S. Army" was here to save us weak ass marines.
